Tragic comic Ralphie May scrapped a documentary about his life before he died, it has been revealed.
And fans of the larger than life star will now ever get to see it as hours of footage was destroyed.
May's former manager, Andrew Dorfman, testified in court recently after he was subpoenaed by May's widow, Lahna Turner.
She was trying to ascertain information about contracts, assets and property and other financial details.
Dorfman revealed that before he died the comedian had given permission to a woman named Cat Rhinehart to film his daily life.
The manager asked her to forward all the footage - which she did in 2015.
However, according to Dorfman the comic told him to trash the video.
The manager claims the hard drives remained in his possession until the fall of 2016 when he threw them away after he moved his business from Tennessee to Alabama.
After hearing Dorfman's testimony the judge ordered him to immediately surrender and turn over the hard drives if they are ever located or anyone he knows comes into possession of them.
May died aged only 45 on Oct 6, 2017.
